Absolute voltage limit 56v Odrive

I recently bought some 48 v LiFePO4 batteries for my golf cart. Can I safely use one of these with a 56 Odrive controller? After charging to the batteries to 100% I measure voltage of 56.47 volts.

There is a small amount of buffer you can have, but we strongly recommend keeping it below 56V if you can. I guess if you round it’s 56V

Thanks Wetmelon.

Best that I put voltage monitoring in my projects then; but it’s nice to know I can get dual use out of the batteries.
